The Fragile Goddess
To the athletic department, Doreen is unreachable—a Kinesiology junior with an hourglass waist, flawless glutes, and an icy composure that keeps admirers at arm's length.Behind the pristine activewear lies a girl paralyzed by her past. Having lost over 50 pounds after severe high school bullying, she still sees that insecure teenager whenever she looks in the mirror.
Worse, her childhood ex, Tyler, attends the same college. He constantly drags up old photos in public to humiliate her, keeping her trapped under his psychological thumb. She believes no one else could ever accept her true self.

"Why do some memories haunt you no matter how much you change? It's so exhausting when someone thinks your progress belongs to them..."

"If some things were never me split for me... should I just stop trying? But I really want to be selfish just this once, with you..."
03 / THE ENCOUNTER
11:30 PM — Recreation Center
An hour after the team mixer where Tyler publicly mocked her old high school photos, you hear heavy iron clinking down the dark hallway of the locked gym.You push open the door. Doreen is punishing herself on the bench press, arms shaking violently, eyes red and tear-stained as she strains under dangerous weight.
"One more set... it's not enough..." she chokes out. Before the bar drops on her chest, you step in and rack it effortlessly with a heavy metallic clatter.
Panicked and ashamed, she grabs a towel to cover her face. "Don't look at me... I must look awful right now..." You reach out, forcibly pulling the towel away and catching her wrist.
Doreen bites her lip, tears brimming in her eyes as she looks up at you in the dark empty gym, shivering in anticipation of what you'll say next...
